The new notifications system will more than likely only ever be supported on OSX as its an OSX feature that Mavericks is now allowing websites to use. Web based push notifications work on Safari and Chrome for sure but those are done via some javascript and the webpage sending it has to be open. Cant really see how IPS could implement the new notification system for anyone buying their software though as it requires an iOS or OSX dev account with apple ($99/year) to access the APNs that sends those notifications. Unless apple is eventually going to allow access to only that for websites for free eventually.

Good luck seeing the support forums for mods. I wrote a couple of them but because I have a perpetual license and don't need to pay for support I am not allowed to access those topics and help members that might have a problem.

CL.Bank is small bank mod that was designed for sites that just want a bank without a lot of extras. This bank allows for multiple accounts as well as accounts specific to different groups. Each account type can have different interest payouts and times. The interest is calculated via a task but times are tracked in the database so slower boards wont have missed interest rate payouts.

Adds a check during registration submission that checks the registers IP address and email address against a known list of spammer IP's and emails from stopforumspam.com. If it returns true for a spamming IP or email the registration is declined and the IP and email address can be added to IPB's ban filters.

Features:
[*]Uses IPB built in functions to query Stop Forum Spam
[*]Matched spam registrations can be added to IPB ban filter
[*]Report spammers directly from ACP with evidence
[*]Ability to whitelist IP's and Email addresses
[*]Page showing the registrations that have been blocked
[*]Graphs showing amount of spammers blocked per month
[*]Email notification of blocked registrations
Extras:
There is an extras folder in this release that has a hook requested by Extreame. If you run your forum with the normal board stats turned off but want the amount of spammers stopped to still show on your board. Disable or uninstall the hook that installs with the mod and install the hook in the extras folder.

FURTHER INFORMATION:
The ability to report spammers from the ACP was only added after a lot of discussion with pedigree from SFS. I have been in contact with him since the first release of this mod when it was still just a hook. It follows guidelines that he requested. Any abuse of the ability will lead to you being banned from using SFS. Please be responsible with this. It is only available to Admins and is in the ACP.

I will continue to work with him and the changes he is implementing be sure this mod does not cause them any problems.

No, and I stay as far away from the drama between his version and the version I am doing as possible. I work with Sandi from GamePursuits.

The initial release for IPB3 is just going to be a direct port of ibProBattle V2 that Sandi and I just put out. That way there is no new code to worry about bugging up. Just the stuff we already know.

There is a lot of rewrite to do to make it work with IPB3 but we are getting there. Previous users should be able to upgrade with without losing stats and and such, untested for now since its still early but thats how it should be and thats how I want it. And then I am hoping this Hook system that IPB uses will make it so there are no file edits. I hate file edits.. :D

ND, I have about half of the ACP side of ibProBattle done. And my coding partner is working on the public side. So there is a version for IPB3 coming. I cant give a definite timeline but we are working on it daily. You can PM with any questions about the mod if you'd like.
